Tony, What you found in your sister-in-law's file is one of the reasons we always suggest that you create a new family file for any data you get from others, whether it is a Legacy file or a GEDCOM. That way you can find and fix those kind of errors in how the other person handled unknowns, locations, dates, sources, etc. clean them up in the separate file then import the clean data into your own file.
